> How would someone's friends figure out that it's not a natural diamond? I would think the only way the wife would know is if she asked about the diamond's papers, if she was going to get an insurance policy for it or something.
It actually doesn't matter how she finds out that you lied to her about the biggest life change she will ever experience for the rest of her life. What matters is that lying to a person you want to marry is a sure-fire way to end the marriage at some definite future point.
Arguing that it's okay because you will never be found out isn't relevant.

I didn't argue this at all, and in a reply to another comment below, 3 hours before your comment, I made it clear that all I was saying was that it's a bit farfetched to say someone is going to be embarrassed in front of her friends because of the ring.

In the bit that I quoted, specifically this sentence: >>>> I would think the only way the wife would know is [...] it appeared to me that you were arguing that the wife would never know unless [...] happened. To me, that sentence implies deceiving the wife.
